Keywords That Activate Facebook’s Text Delight Animations


Once awhile you may stumble on these effects on Facebook by chance, like posting "congratulations” on your friend’s birthday. When posted, these words appear as a different color and clicking on them triggers a brief animation (balloons or hearts, for example.)

The list of the special words is growing, and such minim-animations are called “text delights”. Some of the triggers are certain Holidays related, others are more generic. This program has unlocked delight for millions of people across the world and has had massive impact through the celebration of the 20th Anniversary of Harry Potter, activating people around Earth Day and inspiring people to reflect on their maternal connections on Mother's Day.

The text combinations, activating the magic are presented below:
